Icarus should have waited for nightfall, the Moon would have never let him go.

i'm fascinated by the scene in which river is ripping the labels off the cans and emotionally distraught, but especially the elements of it that are in the shooting script but missing from the episode itself, because i'm really interested where the show would have gone with it on a thematic level.

i think the blue sun corporation, at this point, is fairly infamous as a major plot thread in firefly that never really got the chance to be unraveled, even in the film. it's a mega corporation that is quite casually advertised throughout the franchise without ever specifically being emphasized/focused on. whedon apparently described it as a combination between microsoft and coca cola, according to the wiki page - the gist being, i think, that it is so influential as to be near-ubiquitous throughout the 'verse. or as river puts it in the shooting script:

i find it interesting that river's initial agitation seems to come about because "everybody sees and nobody sees it." while i don't know that's ever made explicitly clear how, exactly, blue sun is reportedly supposed to have had ties to the academy and likely the alliance government at large.

it does seem, based on some of the language river uses, that we're supposed to intuit that blue sun was actively involved with/possibly running the academy, rather than just funding it or being tangentially related. she says here that "these are the ones that take you", and i think it's likely that, here, she's talking about the men with the "hands of blue" we know are looking for her. regardless, blue sun has direct ties with the organization that hurt and exploited her so badly, and to see it everywhere - on their food cans, of all things - is clearly quite emotionally triggering for her. "they're the ones that reach in and do it," after all - and i do wonder if this is supposed to be a reference to the fact that they stripped her amygdala at the academy?

it's hard to make sense entirely of what river is saying here, because she's distraught, not always putting full sentences together, some things she's saying very quietly and others very loudly, and the camera pulls away from her at a few points. on the surface, it seems like she's saying she's afraid - which certainly isn't untrue. she clearly is afraid of the blue sun and the hands of blue. but the shooting script (and i do actually think she says this is in the episode itself, too, it's just not captured in the captions) has her say:

the blue sun's roots, she seems to be saying, are everywhere, to the point where there's probably branded toothpaste with the logo on it. and she's afraid not just for the harm they've caused her (or at least been a part of/culpable in) but for the ubiquity of the corporation, how no one says anything - sometimes because they don't see the influence, it's so common, but sometimes they do "but no one says it because, because sometimes they're afraid."

this, to me, hints at a larger thematic idea the show wanted to be steered in the direction toward but never had the chance to get to. one of the principles of firefly is that the more things change, the more they stay the same, and even in space, 500 years from now, we have most of the same problems - there's still war, oppressive governments, slavery, and mega corporations hurting people in the name of capitalism, people who get complacent and don't see it or have too many other problems to worry about it or see it but are too scared to do anything about it.

River forced herself into the corner of the common room, tears streaming down her face.

"I'm sorry! I - I didn't - people in the shadows - "

Slowly, Simon kneeled down in front of her, ignoring the way his cheek throbbed.

"Shh, mei-mei, it's ok - "

"No!" she screamed, "I hurt you and - "

"What in the gorram hell is going on in here?" Mal yelled, stomping into the room.

"Captain, uh - "

"They're coming to take our wings away," River suddenly said, looking at the captain with dark eyes, "They're going to take them away, melt them in the Sun just like Icarus' had."

It was quiet for a few seconds before Mal shook his head and started walking again, his tired voice ringing out after him.

"Just go to your room and stay there. We got clandestine dealings and clients to see in a few and I don't want them seeing you."

"We're going to see the Sun," River whispered to her brother, willing him to understand, "and we're going to melt away..."

Author's note -

I love metaphors and River using metaphors.

This fic will get an unofficial sequel sometime this month (even if I have to plead to the muses) because for once I know exactly where this fic is going.

Misterul „Soarelui Albastru” din trecut: impactul unei erupții vulcanice asupra climei globale

În urmă cu aproximativ 200 de ani, între anii 1831 și 1833, un fenomen bizar a făcut ca Soarele să pară albastru, violet sau verde în diverse regiuni ale lumii. Acest eveniment rar a fost însoțit de o scădere a temperaturii globale medii cu aproximativ 1°C, marcând o perioadă de răcire globală temporară. De-a lungul decadelor, originea acestui fenomen a rămas un mister, dar cercetări recente au…
